This 1920s beggar has more durable clothes than I do.

That’s because he worked the fields, not the pole. :P

Top hats seem like they’re specifically designed to send a message of “we mock your poverty”.

You are as PRESUMPTUOUS as you are POOR and IRISH

I’m using this the next time my Irish girlfriend asks for a ride home from work

Most things that rich people do are for this exact reason only.

It’s how we got grass lawns and ponds and swimming pools and the reason our “fancy” clothes exist.

Some rich fuck decided to start doing something over the top because he’s gotta flex on the poors and then poor people are like “oh we gotta look nice like them!” And it ends up causing societal changes to the point I can get fined for not mowing my fucking lawn enough.

This comment brought to you by years of repressed rage against rich people

You can tell he’s a beggar because his hat is so short.

I’m surprised that they would let random people get that close to royalty after what happened in 1914.

Now we carry “leadership” around in APC’s with a smiley face to keep them insulated from the people they hurt.
